Was meandering through the garden today when I noticed the Dictyocaryum had shed a leaf and was almost glowing blue.

    Wow Justin, the crown shaft color is exceptional. Mine, as they have aged, have varying hues of blue, mauve, and a grey blue. That looks to have some age to it as well and luckily  didn’t succumb to the co2 during the eruption. Hey, nice spending time with you last week. Your garden the next time.

    Yeah, this was the only one that survived the eruption, likely because the Banyan tree bore the brunt of the bad air and the acid rain.

    I'd like to be under the sea in an octopus' garden in the shade.

    Wow, looks very nice, Justin.  I lost all 5 of mine during the eruption.  Not even a trace of them remained.
